Easy Decorating Ideas to Make Over a Room
in a Day
Add a cheery accent color.
In this case, designer Gideon Mendelson added a bright yellow
throw and fresh flowers to flip an otherwise tame, blue-and-
white color scheme on its head.
Try a statement tablecloth.
Before this red and white patterned tablecloth hit the table, this
room was quite traditional. But with designer T. Keller Donovan’s
touch, it becomes an eclectic room with tons of personality. (And
fun fact: That tablecloth matches the custom Thibaut furnishings
in the adjacent sitting area.)
Make bedding changes.
Jonathan Scott, home design expert and brand ambassador for
Stearns & Foster, recommends owning two sheet and comforter
sets, so you can swap them out by the season. “In winter, you want
warm and inviting bedding, like faux fur and bulky blankets,” he
says.
Turn your floors blue.
Can you imagine how simple this bathroom looked before it had
a bright blue floor? The quick change by designer Kari McCabe
allows the tub to take center stage and makes us want to soak in
there all day long.
